Have a Blast On the Quayside
01 May 2005
XLentcleaning journeys from Canterbury UK to Seawork, where it will be giving demonstrations of its Farrow System method of removing surface coatings on the quayside. XLentcleaning is a licensed operator of the Farrow System, which enables the removal of protective coatings such as marine anti-fouling from fibreglass without damaging the gel coat. The system is extremely fast and can clean a 30’ GRP vessel in less than three hours without the need for removal of fixtures and fittings.
The remaining surface needs little or no preparation before reapplying anti-fouling. As an environmentally friendly process without chemicals and toxic fumes, fibreglass, steel and wood can be cleaned leaving no mess or disturbance to neighbouring vessels.
Farrow System is manufactured in the UK and consists of a safe, trailer mounted mobile rig operating at 28 to 84 psi, with a fully galvanised frame and tank, which<$>can be towed behind a car. The System includes a self-priming water pump, inlet water connection, air inlet water filter/separator, lockable hydrostatic/pneumatic control cabinet, emergency stop control, 20m of blast hose, a blast nozzle and dead man controller and operator selected water/abrasive or wash down facility.
